This thesis investigates the development of an innovative fibre reinforced composite. A developed textile, consisting of mineral fibres that is embedded in a special mastic asphalt matrix. The integration of a grid shaped textile structure into the asphalt cause an inner reinforcement of the asphalt layer. This leads to a significant enhancement towards the tensile strength during bending. It also gives resistance to deformation. Rut formation is minimized and the thickness of the asphalt layer can be reduced.
